Rosemary Bud Trayers Rosemary I have called police nonemergency number no less than 15 times, documenting the constant interference with getting to Sochi by tampering with traps, removing signs, being followed when I go near the location last seen. I have called animal control, emailed them for assistance as suggested by police but received no help beyond the first call in early March when officer M. from animal control told me to trap the tom cats across the street who chased Sochi off when he got out. I’ve told them about the harassment with neighbors yelling “ the cat, the f- ing cat” when I hired Florida Pet Recovery. They continue to tell me over and over that I can’t prove anything beyond a reasonable doubt and to contact animal control. They also told me explicitly that they don’t do civil standbys, which I have requested on multiple occasions after witnessing my cat on the property mentioned above. I don’t know how much clearer I can be about doing everything possible to get my cat back.

Lost Cats‼️ Indoor only cats and limited outdoor access cats never go far. They go into survival mode and hide in silence. Most of them will not respond when they are in survival mode. 3 AM is the best time to find a missing indoor only cat. This is the time they become most active and responsive. Sit and quietly call for your kitty. Try to stay low, standing is intimidating to cats. Place some dirty socks and pillow cases outside. Your scent will attract your kitty. If you have a garage, place the items near the garage door and crack the door enough for her to get in. DO NOT leave food or litter box outside, it can attract predators and aggressive Tom cats. Because indoor only cats hide so well they are not as likely to be ed by a predator. Don't give up, it can take months to find a missing indoor only cat. Use a flashlight as late at night as you can to look in trees, under cars and in bushes. Try to look for the glow of her eyes. The best chance of you being reunited with your cat is to do a methodical search of the area. Most indoor only cats will be within 160 feet of your home. Survival mode lasts 5 to 14 days but can last longer. Once their hunger gets to a maximum they snap out of it but this is a dangerous time because they come out of hiding. The majority of cats will try to make a break for home on the 5th night. In addition to posted flyers, make mini flyers and hand them out to your neighbors. Some people don't pay attention to posted flyers. It's VERY VERY important that you look for her as late at night as you can. If you have other cats, watch them. If they are spending a lot of time looking out a certain window, that’s a good indication the missing cat is in that area. Wildlife and motion activated cameras are also helpful. a lot of people are successful trapping their indoor only cats. If you decide to trap, you must watch the trap closely, predators can a cat in a trap.,

I paid PawBoost to get the message out and cross post because I deleted my other Facebook account due to fear of retaliation. I’m not accustomed to using Facebook. Can someone please help me get this message out and to cross post across relevant groups? Thank you so much ❤️

Eileen Pisaturo Snyder I’m worried for my safety because when I step foot on the street I am being followed and it’s very intimidating. One man living on the street has followed me 4 times and now another man who lives on my street is also beginning to follow me. They have created a network to keep me away. It’s absolutely horrible on top of the fact that I am missing my Sochi. I don’t know what else to do. I’m new here.

Also go there and leave pieces of your clothing and go and shake a bag of his favorite treats esp at night and early morning calling his name.
